Ashley, 31 from England. I got into bbq by mistake, having bought an offset smoker accidentally. I intended to buy a cheap charcoal grill but had no experience or knowledge in what I was buying. That was in the summer of 2020, fast forward 2 years from then and I started my own home takeaway bbq business, and then fast forward another 2 years and we’ve just done 16 pop up catering events and a wedding this year. We’ve been on the meat and greet bbq podcast, and met Evan LeRoy & Bradley Robinson (chuds bbq) and I’m hoping to visit Texas next year with several bbq joints confirming that they’d be happy to have me work there whilst I visit, including LeRoy & Lewis, Hurtado BBQ and Bar-A-bbq. I am getting people visit from hours away to try our bbq and someone from New Jersey was in the area visiting and they made the effort to visit our pop up and said how they were blown away by it. I work full time still at the moment and have a Fiance and an 8 month old son, so it’s been a juggling act so far this year. I have no previous catering experience or restaurant experience either. Just one man accidentally falling head first into this crazy world of bbq. I focus on central Texas style cooking on an offset imported from Houston, using strictly Oak.

Hi I’m The BBQ Queen! My name is Roxanne Miller. I am a Wife and a Mother of 3. I grew up in Firebaugh, CA and currently reside in Hanford, CA. I have always been passionate about cooking from a very young age. I loved to cook all types of food so BBQ just seemed like something that would be fun to learn. I started my instagram page in 2016 and chose the name because I thought it was cute. I quickly started growing a following and was cooking for my Instagram page almost daily. In 2017 I started selling BBQ lunch plates to friends and people who followed me. I cooked at my home and delivered them all over Fresno, CA. During this time I also joined a few competitions just to get my feel of the competition world. I purchased my Lang Smoker and fell even more in love with smoking meats.

Matthew Hussey from Trinity, NC. I’m a full-time electrical equipment sales engineer, but when the workday ends, I dive headfirst into my real passion—cooking! I’m the guy behind "The Hungry Hussey" on YouTube, where I’ve been sharing my love for backyard grilling, smoking, and cooking since 2012. It all started in 2012 when I got my first Big Green Egg. That was the moment I became a certified “Egghead,” and I’ve been hooked ever since. I used to post my cooks on Instagram, but things kicked into high gear after a marketing firm reached out and suggested I check out Todd Toven on YouTube. I figured, “Hey, I can do that too,” and that’s how The Hungry Hussey was born on YouTube. Now, I’m all about showing regular folks how to make “Some Good Groceries” on everything from a 36" Pro Series Blackstone to a Lone Star Grillz offset smoker. If it can cook, griddle, or smoke food, I’m all in! My sidekick Maggie, our dog, is usually around making sure everything’s up to her standards too. When I’m not cooking, you can find me hanging out with my amazing wife Makenzie, our two kids Maryn and Mason, and our two dogs, Maggie and Molly. Life’s busy, but I wouldn’t have it any other way. Looking forward to chatting and sharing some laughs, tips, and maybe even a few kitchen fails—because hey, they happen to the best of us!
